Hi All,

    What are the best ways to transfer files on an Amiga CD rom read
on a PC to my Amiga A1200?

    I can copy the files to a 720k floppy and then unarc them on my
Amiga ok but problems start if the file won't fit in 720k. I think I
need some software capable of splitting files on a PC and matching
software to reassemble it on my Amiga. Does any thing similar to this
exist? If not is there any way the same end result can be achieved?

    BTW does anyone know if Win95 will handle Amiga long file names
using the above method?
